LAST DISCOURSE (shared on July 4, 2013 in Sadhaka Message) - On reading this I got a heavy jolt, (which I never got prior to reading this).

Swamiji says -

One excellent, very easy, very straight forward point. That is - Do not have any desires (longing, want, yearning, wishfulness) of any sort, whatsoever. Neither of Paramatma (God), nor of Self (Atma), nor of the World, nor of Salvation, nor of Benediction, have no desires at all and be silent. Be still.

Then further ahead he says -

I am God's, God is mine, I belong to no one else, and no one else is mine. Accept this. Becoming free of desires and becoming silent - both these are the same.

What has happened today, it has never happened before, which I am sharing here. Where he has said - "Have no desires whatsoever." In this is also included the desire to not have any desires.

That is it - this was the biggest of all jolts till now.

As per previous commitment to gita-talk group, I am sharing here, otherwise, I remain silent from within.

Humbly,

Sadhak

Shree Hari Ram Ram

I have heard this discourse time and again. It gives me great solace and comfort. I cannot help by prostrate and bow in front of God and Swamiji, for blessing me with such priceless treasures.

I don't have any desire of any sort as I am not this body and mind. Due to illusion, it appears that I am this body and I have desires. So, accept the truth.

I am always part of God. Any separation or differentiation seen is due to illusion. So, accept oneness with God.

God is always mine as I am part of God. Accept this truth.

I am always silent as there is no material activity or thought in me. Any perturbation in me is due to illusion. Accept this truth.

You cannot renounce any material object. Sannyasa does not mean to give up anything. It means to know that self does not have any relationship with matter and therefore, self does not own anything.

Same way, no one can give up desires. You can give up something which you have. What you can do is to accept and realize that desires are not in you. The problem happens that people try to give up desires accepting that they are in them. That should be clarified.

The illusion sees as if there will come a fulfilled state by the fulfilment of any or some desires. Thus sees as if pain between desire and fulfillment will end. When the fulfilled state is seen as illusory, the pain between desire and fulfillment is transformed as natural friction between imagination and Reality.

One can sees that brain can not remain without thinking, without tension, without movement, without â€˜what nextâ€™ even for a fraction of second. Seeing the automation of this process completely silences the brain. Now one is engaged in â€˜whatever one is doingâ€™ from moment to moment as the energy is not dissipated in covering up tension, in pre-confirming â€˜what nextâ€™. One is attuned to all possibilities now.

There is completeness, which will never â€˜becomeâ€™ complete is the paradox-which brain has to bear.

Eight years ago, early morning on Aashad Krishna Dvadashi day, on Vikram Samvat - 2062 (Indian Calendar) and (as per English calendar at 3:40 a.m. on 3rd July 2005), Swami Ramsukhdasji left for the Eternal Abode. Below is the last discourse, given on June 29-30 at Gita Bhawan, Rishikesh, Swarg Ashram)

One excellent, very easy, very straight forward point. That is - Do not have any desires of any sort, whatsoever. Neither of Paramatma (God), nor of Self (Atma), nor of the World, nor of Salvation, nor of Benediction, have no desires at all and be silent. Be still. Because Paramatma is present in all places, in the form of stillness. If there is no want, no desire of any sort, then Paramatma can be realized instantly, Self-Realization can take place, perfection and complete fulfillment is attainable !

This is everyone's experience that some desires are fulfilled and others are not. It is not a rule that all desires will be fulfilled. The fulfillment of all desires is not in our hands, but it is in our hands to give up desires. When no more wishes, no more desires remain, then you will be naturally situated in Paramatma. You will have the realization (experiential knowledge) of God. No wants, nothing to do, no place to go, no place to arrive, nothing to study, nothing to practice, that is all there is - only these simple points. In just these few words, everything has been said entirely ! It is due to desiring something that we experience bondage in this world. On leaving these desires completely, once and for all, one becomes naturally, situated in Paramatma (God), who is present everywhere, in entirety.

In all your activities remain neutral and impartial. Have no attachment (likes) and aversion (dislikes).

There are actions and there are objects. Both these are in Nature (Prakriti). While discontinuing relationship with objects and actions, become dependent on only Paramatma (God). Take refuge in only God, That is It.You are already naturally situated in God.

In a dream a lady's child was lost. She was deeply distressed and grieving. But when she woke up from her sleep, she saw that her child is sleeping right next to her - The point of this message is that wherever you are, there Paramatma (God) IS completely and entirely. Wherever you are, there itself be still !!

From last discourse in Hindi by Swami Ramsukhdasji on June 29th, 2005 at Gita Bhavan, Swargashram, Rishikesh, India, where Swamiji last resided.

Question: Yesterday you said that have no wants. Leave desires and become silent, of these two, which one is more beneficial?

Swamiji -I am God's, God is mine, I belong to no one else, and no one else is mine. Accept this. Becoming free of desires and becoming silent - both these are the same. Let there be no desire at all, neither of sense enjoyments, nor of liberation, nor of love, nor of devotion, nor anything else.

Questioner -One is not to desire, but if some work needs to take place then?

Swamiji -Do the work with great enthusiasm, do it round the clock, but don't have any want. Understand this point properly. Serve others, try to remove their sorrows, but in return do not want anything from them. Serve them, and then become silent. If working somewhere, take the wages, but do not desire anything.

The main point is that wherever you are, there itself is God. If you desire nothing, then you will be situated in only God. When all is God only, then what is there to desire? It is due to desiring the world, that we are in the world. When there is no desire, then we are situated in God.

(When our life becomes according to the words of saints, their instructions, then that itself is genuine commemoration, offering of flowers, gratitude. Let us therefore with a firm conviction accept the words of Swamiji Maharaj and make our lives a success).
